How does temperature effect your shotgun pattern?

SKFOOTER

The colder the temperatures the denser the air.  Thus pellets per pattern are minimized.  Better patterns are achieved in warmer temperatures. :OGturkeyhead:

I have seen patterns drop as much as 40 pellets on on a day in the 40s compared to a day in the 70s.

Put it like this, my extended range water fowl choke (winter time) patterns a lil less tighter than my hevi-13 does in spring
